    Hard

    It is hard
    Though think of the much better life and prospects they now have

    I wish I had had the balls to do it when I was 25, only the thought of breaking my mothers heart stopped me

    Now I wish my two daughters and families can get away from the UK
    If not soon then hopefully when I die and they then have the money to do it

    I would go tomorrow but I could not leave them behind

      Zig, My two sisters and I were forced to live with one or the other but not both. I can tell you categorically that that dad is still, and always will be dad, and mam is and always will be mam. Sooner or later the kids will move on and make their own way, you know that, but the only thing that changes is their address. You'll always be their dad, and they'll make sure you know it.

        Were your Russian sunflower seeds short & fat - like the ones I've got on the LH side of this pic?

        Those on the RH side are from sunflowers I've been developing for use as cut flowers:

          No Scrunge, small, but not fat. But at least they have kernels, which is more than the big one did.

          Yours look good:thumbsup:
